if i may add some as well. first do whatever glice says.
especially if it concerns don giovanni. i will definitely have to check out that recording.
if you want quality preformances, you usually cant go wrong with deutsche grammaphone. they usually have quality stuff.
anything james levine conducts is usually great and boulez.
other bartok to check out are his quintet and conerto for orchestra. last year i saw his miraculous mandarin suite which is fantastic.
messiaen turangalilot symphony is amazing. i like messiaen a lot because you can usually get a great mixture of really crazy music with really beautifuly composed lyrical music. the same goes for bartok.
oh and mozarts jupiter symphony (41) if you have not heard it, then you kind of must.
i have not yet heard all of berlioz's requiem but the dies ire is pretty great. there is this insane part composed for 14 timpanis.
two days ago i saw wagner's tannhauser which is pretty fantastic.
and anything by arvo part that have heard has been amazing.l but im sure that glice knows more on the subject and better recordings than what naxos has to offer
